Books of Ryu

[Vlad]

how many are there? i got I II III VI V VI , is there only 6?

[Tsukasa]

There should be 8, if I'm correct.

[megaman exe]

ya, your right because i have the brady games stratigy guide

[Shadow Rose]

Seig if you are a true gamer you would not use a strategy guide but people play games there own way. yes tsukasa you are right there are 8 books of ryu if you use each book for your key item option you might get an item for your desktop on the game

Don't even start on the 'true gamer' bit >_>

People play games for different reasons. Some do it for the gameplay, some do it for the story. This doesn't make anyone less or more of a 'gamer'

A 'gamer' is someone who plays a lot of games, no matter how they play them. I, personally, care more for the story than the actual gameplay, thus I'm open to using strategy guides and/or walkthroughs. It hasn't taken away from my enjoyment of the games, and it takes away a lot of frustration that is, for me, distracting in Real Life when I try to do other things.

So, heading this off before it starts, I don't want to hear anything about who is and isn't a real gamer.

Thanks.

(And, as a note, don't post offensive things like that, especially when you seem to KNOW it's going to be offensive by putting 'no offense' in your subject line. That's just ridiculous.)

Personally? I'm a gamer eager for quick plot-advancement. Thus, while I disapprove of strategy guides, I don't have a problem if friends won't help me and I can't get anywhere or I'm done with the game.

personaly i have nothing against haveing a stragy giude, it can be helpful at times, but i do perfer to stay away from using them, has they may tell u something u would rather find out for urself

[Shadow Rose]

with what most of you said i have to agree i do not have anything against strategy guides i just think you should beat the game before using one

[HermitIX]

i personaly think that right after you beet a game is the best time to bust out the cheat book. ::cough:: i mean stratagy guide. i opend one at gamestop the other day and it told you things like where to get gruntie food, and has a list of all the weapons you can get and what monster drops them. i even saw a Rare twinblade wapon that i didnt get the durning the game. <i do have the all fire rare weapon>

[Terra]

i have that one too, law accuracy, i don't like it, the dendes blade i traded for is plenty for me, and it has good accracy

a ya and no stragy giude eathier

not to mention with the help of the Ryu books i can find anything in the game i want

[Xeno]

I only use strategy guides as a last attempt (except for with huge games like Final Famtasy X) when i get stuck somewhere... Thankfully I didn't need one for .hack

[megaman exe]

i bought the stratigy guide for help on items not the game

[Zippy Zion]

Strategy guide?

Yuck...

I never use those... I unlocked all the Ryu books without it and got all the best equipment without it... at least I think its the best equipment.... I'm prett sure it is... oh well... if there is better I will find it!

[Terra]

what level of stuff do u have, early 30's is the best u can get, other then rares

weapons i think the best i've found was level 16 rare

[Shadow Rose]

i think that rare weapon is gotten by [spoiler]killing the parasite dragon[/spoiler]
